What Are Injectables and Fillers?

Repetitive muscle contractions in the face can lead to the development of fine lines and wrinkles. Botox® and Dysport® are neuromodulating injectables that block the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine at nerve terminals, preventing muscle contractions in the treated area. Botox® and Dysport® relax these muscles to soften and eliminate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Kybella® is a nonsurgical treatment to reduce the amount of submental fat and improve the appearance of a double chin. Kybella® consists of a naturally occurring molecule called deoxycholic acid that breaks down dietary fat in the digestive system. Kybella® is ideal for patients who want to redefine their jawline without surgery. Patients usually require three to five treatment sessions, depending on the degree of adiposity.

Soft tissue fillers add volume in the face. There are many different types of soft tissue fillers, including those derived from hyaluronic acid (HA), calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa), and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Fillers differ in properties that affect their consistency and how long the results last. They are also ideal for small volume augmentation of the lip, cheeks, hands, and gluteal area.

What Are the Benefits of Injectables and Fillers?

Redefine what it means to age gracefully with Beverly Hills injectables and fillers. Injectables and fillers can reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, restore lost facial volume, and reduce the appearance of double chins.

Beverly Hills and Los Angeles, CA, Injectables and Filler FAQs

The costs of injectables and fillers depend on your goals and concerns. Dr. Davis will provide an estimate for a more accurate injectable and filler cost in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles during your consultation.

Botox: You may see noticeable results within a few days as your muscles relax following your Botox® procedure. With optimal treatment, you should enjoy smoother, more youthful-looking skin for three to six months.

Fillers:

Many patients see results immediately following treatment. However, some fillers work more gradually, providing softer, more natural-looking results. Results last from six months to two years, depending on the individual and product used. Follow-up injections may be necessary to maintain optimal results.

Kybella:

With Kybella®, most patients experience visible results in two to four treatments. Once you have attained your ideal chin profile, you should not need any touch-up injections to maintain your appearance. With a healthy diet and lifestyle, you’ll enjoy long-term results.

Botox®, Kybella®, and filler procedures are usually fast and painless with minimal discomfort and downtime. However, be sure to address your concerns about pain with Dr. Davis prior to your procedure.

The cost of dermal fillers ranges from $300 to over $950. However, costs will vary by person, depending on the number of units used to achieve their aesthetic goals. To ensure optimal filler results, it is important to select a highly qualified injector like board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Davis. Following your consultation, Dr. Davis will estimate your Beverly Hills dermal filler cost.

During your filler procedure, your skin may be treated with a topical anesthetic to minimize your discomfort. Many Juvéderm fillers contain lidocaine to ensure minimal discomfort throughout the procedure and after. However, it’s important to discuss your pain concerns before beginning any dermal filler procedures.

As the dermal fillers are strategically injected into the areas of concern, you may feel pressure or a stinging sensation. Depending on the treatment areas, filler procedures typically last 30 to 45 minutes.

As with any plastic surgery procedure, there are possible side effects. In the case of injectables or fillers, side effects range from swelling to redness or allergic issues. However, by choosing an experienced injector like board-certified Dr. Davis, the risk of side effects is minimal.

The longevity of injectable results varies based on a few key factors, such as injection location, individual response, and the formula itself. Typically, Botox® and Dysport® results last for three to four months. Results from dermal fillers comprised of hyaluronic acid typically last for six months to a year, depending on the formula used. Other fillers, such as Radiesse or Sculptra, work more gradually but produce longer-lasting results of around two years.
